How we handle worktop repair in Hessay
Different worktops need different repairs: laminate is filled and patterned, quartz and stone are filled and polished, and wood is sanded and refinished. The goal is always a repair that blends in. Our technicians work on solid surface (such as Corian), granite & marble and laminate, and people most frequently call us about burns from hot pans and chipped corners.
You’re covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before booking.

DIY kit or professional repair?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
Repair or replace in Hessay?
Replacing a worktop means removing the old one, templating and fitting a replacement and reconnecting the sink and hob, and matching the rest of the kitchen can be hard. Repairing the damage leaves the worktop in place. Our worktop repair starts from £95. A repair typically costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Doing more than one item at once
- The colour and finish to match
- How easy the damage is to reach
There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Send photos for a quote
Phone pictures are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Make sure they show:
